:I'm just curious.  How many disks are in this box?  We saw something
:similar here at work and it turned out that there were multiple disklabels
:on the other disks and for somereason it was confusing the loader.
:We dd'd the bad sections off and everything worked.

    I've got one IDE CDRom and two SCSI disks.

    I did play with the labels on those machines.  I will try blowing
    them away.  If I put a 'printf("XXX\n");' in front of every single
    v86int() call in libi386/biosdisk.c it doesn't crash on me.

    ... ( time passes ) ...

    ok...  I cleared the disk labels using dd.   Hoa!  That seems to have
    fixed it allright!  

    Very weird.  I was sure I zero'd the labels before I populated the disk,
    but maybe not.

    Thanks much!  I was tearing my hair out on this one...
